In one small area you have Greenback, Alcoa & Maryville competing for State Championships. Maybe best you, look at the Communities and how active the feeder football programs are? I'm 100% sure, that's where you'll find the heart of these programs success. Or enrollment with 30% out of county students lol. That has to be the highest in the state for a public school. 1 out of 3 kids arent even from Alcoa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That the best you got!?....already coming up with fake news and excuses I was pulling for them sissy bees, so they would have to travel to the Tornado torture grounds for another 75 point beat down. But if you can't get out of your backyard without getting beat....I guess it will probably be Loudon or Redbank getting the invite! I guess the bees can go back to being average at best!!

Little bit further than our backyard. At least we was able to handle our in county 6a brothers. Howd that go for Alcoa? Last time I checked you were the only team that took a beating in your own backyard lol. You better hope we dont get there you dont have that QB to save you this time...

MadHatter1 Posted October 5, 2019 Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 The Board of Education unanimously approved a $21.7 million budget for general purpose school funds, up from $20.9 million this year. Although the budget would raise tuition from $700 to $1,000, city of Alcoa employees, including those of the school district, pay only half the amount for their children. Currently, Alcoa City Schools has 408 nonresident students and 1,646 resident students, according to Tom Shamblin, director of finance. The tuition increase will raise an additional $108,000 in revenue I would be willing to bet most of that 408 is at the high school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe then, they'd have the money coming in to fix that cat litter box they call a football field! Worst field, Ive seen. Sad. One last thing.......take open zone away from all TN teams. Alcoa would drop to 2A and continue to hammer teams. Fact. So, keep hating! It brings pure joy to me that it gets to you so bad! Yeah!

District12AA Posted October 6, 2019 Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 How many open zone school systems allow students from outside the county to attend?? I believe most only allow students who live within their own county to go to different schools within that county. Please correct me if I am wrong here because I may be but Alcoa does allow for students outside of Blount Co. to attend correct?? I do not begrudge any parent who chooses to do that because it is significantly cheaper than a private school and you are getting a solid education and athletic experience but to make it seem like every school system's open zone is the same is not fair when discussing this topic.

Almost all open zone school systems allow students from out of county or even out of state. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Over 90% of all school systems are open zone. Even Upperman. I bet Cookeville would like some of their zoned players back from the honey bees!
